This is a song I wrote during a Grassphalt practice.  Has a nice push to the rhythm and a nice irish-esque melody to it.  Came up with it while playing the B-part to Kentucky Mandolin.  The B-Part to this song was different originally, but this just came off the top of my head and I liked it better.  Was going to upload a split-screen vid of me playing rhythm & solo, but couldn't get it to work, so I did the next best thing and played the rhythm track out to my home theater system and played along.  Will probably have to do this from now on.  Hope you enjoy.

P.S.  I entitled this piece "Hills & Valleys" because the original B-part was more upbeat (aka the "hill") and not as "minor-sounding" as the A-part, which served as the melancholy "valley" before reaching the peak of the hill.
